In Paris the subject of painless execu- tion is being discussed again, and M.

Old Trinity Church, New York, began on Sunday the celebration of the two hua dredth anniversary of the foundation of the Trinity Protestant Episcopal Church. The celebrat on will continue througbout the week. The first church edifice was completed in 1698. Edward Gort, sergeant of the Fourth Light Dragoons and Ninth Lancers, died at Petrolia, Ont., lately. He was senior bugler boy in the Crimean War, and sounded the charge of the Light Brigade at Balaclava. A general strike, involving about 20,000 mechanics, members of the building trades in New York, is daily expected as a result of the trouble between the marble indu-try employers’ association and the assuciations of marble workers. Nowadays when women are just ventur- ing to ride horseback astride it is interest- ing to know that Queen Ann, consort of Richard II. of England, was the first women to ride a side saddle, previous to that women riding as did the men. Addington Park, at Cioydon, # country seat of the Archbishop of Canterbury, is to be sold, as the cost of maintaining it is very great. The manor is burdeued by the feudal service of presenting a mess of pottage to the King at his coronation. The King of Italy has conferred upon Hon. William Potter, Minister to ltaly under President Harrison, the order of | Sante Maurizo and Lazzaro. Mr. Potter was minister to Italy beforeand at the time of the settlement of the New Orleans affair. The names of the new city government at St.Louis sound Jike a reichstag roll ca'l. Mr. Ziegenhein is Mayor, and among the other successful candidates for municipal office are Messre. Besch, Wenneker, Rzin- stedler, Meier, Gast, Gaus, Kratz, lhuner, and so forth. A cable says “the French language is now fioally forbidden to be used in Al ace Lorraine in public speeches, and several meetings have been dissolved on that ac- couot.

In view of the complicated state of affairs io the Levant, Lord Salisbury does not desire to re-open just now the diplomatic problem in connec- tion with the conquest of the Soudan. Nor do the British War Departments and the admiralty wish to have fresh responsi- bilities thrust upon them at the present moment in connection with Egypt. Eng- land seems to coveider that she has her hands full enough already and that it will he impolitic to look up aby more men 1D Egypt for the nonce.

Wal+= LOSS OF THE SAMARIA. the Captain and Famiiv Were Natives otf Prince Edward Island, (Vancouver World.) The hope against hope of those in As- toria interested in the safety ur ine long overdue British bark Samaria has vauis.- ed, and the fate of the vessel is pow posi- tively known. The wreckage which lies strewn along North beach telis the tale. There may be seen the greater portion of the deck work of the Samaria. A lar; e quantity ot wreckrge washed ashore and several pieces bear the name of the unfor- tunate vessel, The timbers are broken and show that the bark foundered in a heavy gale. There ix vot the slightest chance fur the safety of those on board. One of the Samaria’s |ifel oats, her sides broken in by the seas, drifi- ed upon the beach. ‘ihe boat was positively identified by the letters “Sam- ar—”on the demolished bow. At the mouth of the Nehalem river, nearly the whole of a ship’s cabio drifted ashore, and while there was nothing to show from whence it came, it is probably part of the ill-fated coal ship. It is the general belief of shipping men that the vessel was lost north of Flattery and that she went down ai sea. If the crew took to the boats there is not the slightest chance of any reaching shore alive, as the demolished boat, which now lieson the beach, wzs ttrongly constructed. The losx of the Samaria has a parallel in the mysterious aisappearance of the Cadzow Forest, and it is likely both vessels weut to the bottom at about the same place. The Samaria, it will be remembered, was commanded by Captain McRue, of Point Prim. —- ——- << SUPREME COURT, Fripay May 7. Young vs. McIsaac.— Yesterday after- noon M.

When ehe opened it she found it contained some material of no visible use to her, She was going to throw it into the fire and burn it, but decided not to do so, bot hand it to the chief of police, from whom the loser might get it.
